Complete Arcade Ladder with All Fighters

Work your way up Arcade Ladder with all 27 characters including hidden fighters Quan Chi and Cyber Sub-Zero. Set Rounds to 1 in the Options menu and select Beginner after choosing your fighter(s) to make it easier.

If you are struggling to beat the Ladder with a specific character, select Tag Team Ladder and choose the fighter you want the ending for plus your main/favourite character, as this counts as having completed the mode with both characters. You can take advantage of this to speed the achievement up and cut your playthroughs in half.

You can see who you have completed the game with in Nekropolis. If it says "View Ending" then you have completed it with that character.

I'm wondering this as well, cause I only beat arcade tag ladder once so far with Cyrax and Sektor to get the robots achievement and when I go to the Nekropolis it shows I can view both characters endings even though I landed the finishing blow with Cyrax.

Must be done on single player Arcade Ladder. It was a workout getting this one. Recommend setting it on Beginner and 1 round matches and farming your way past Shao Kahn. Hope you got free time cause' your gonna need it for this one!

I have the same question as number 7. I grinded out the whole character list from top to bottom even sheeva and quan chi. and after completing the ladder with quan chi, his ending played and credits rolled and..... nothing. didn't unlock the achievement. I did every character on begineer and even left it at 2 rounds instead of one and the achivement didn't unlock for me. I heard you can play as Shao Kahn and Goro. Do i have to do the ladder with them as well? Someone help! lol

I can now confirm that the tag team ladder works (1 player) but the 2 player team ladder does not work. If you do the 2 player team ladder than it only counts for the main profile (player who selected the team ladder) and only the character that the main profile selected.

Select "Tag Ladder" and start with any two characters on Beginner. Finish the ladder with your two characters, start over and select another pair once you're done. It takes a while but faster than you might think.

Summary: Tag ladder does count as already confirmed in this topic.

ALSO: It's a great opportunity to get the "e-X-cellent!", "The Grappler", "Finish What You Start!" achivements if you don't already have them. Simply have each of your two characters do the grapples, an x-ray and a fatality sometime before beating Shao Kahn. I got them all in one sitting.
